John puts in an 18-hour shift at his work. He goes on an break for 1/98 at that time.How many minutes long was his break?

Question

1/98 is a fraction

Answer 1

1/98 * 18 = 18/98 = 9/49 hr 

 

9/49 hr * 60 min/hr = 11 min and 1.22 seconds

 

Poor John deserves a longer break than that after working 18 hours.
